I can see the Tables menu but when I select Insert the menu that should
appear next to the arrow symbol does not appear, therefore, I can't insert a
Table.
If I open Word and then open the document up under the File menu, it does
work. However, if I open up the file directly (not via the Word program) the
menu still fails to appear. Any other advice?

First attempt:
- Open the Tools Customize dialog.
- Right-click the Table menu and select Reset from the popup menu.
- Close the Customize dialog.
- Test the menu.
Second attempt, if the first doesn't work:
- Close Word.
- In "My Computer", choose Tools Folder Options View.
- Click the "Show hidden files and folders" option.
- Close the dialog.
- Go to the folder C:\Documents and Settings\your name\Application
Data\Microsoft\Templates.
- Rename the file Normal.dot to OldNormal.dot.
- Start Word.
- Test the menu.
- If you had customizations (styles, AutoText entries, customized
toolbars, or macros) stored in the OldNormal.dot template, use the
Organizer (in Tools Templates & Add-Ins) to copy them to Normal.dot.

I've closed and reopened Word already.
